We actually spent Christmas at Brunswick Landing Marina. We had a chilly night or two, but did not get shut down on I-80, due to winter weather. (Like we have spent many a Christmas.)
Hello, fellow map nerds. (My people!) We receive many comments from people who are interested in where we are and what we have done. I thought I'd like to put together a general path of our travels, with the hashtag #whereismiles. We may need to do some catching up here, but I wanted to start with the season we're in now. March finished off an amazing three months in the clear waters of the Bahamas. We headed down to the Dominican Republic, and then to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. We left from pretty far north, compared to most cruising boats, but we wanted to top off our diesel tanks before the four-day trip to Samana in the Dominican Republic. ***** The sail was fun, with a good weather window. Our friends on S/V Motu were just ahead of us, so we had a great idea of what to expect. We fished, cooked in the sun oven, and split the shifts between Steve, Cindy, and I. The nights at sea were star-filled beauty, with no ambient light around us. ****...
How fun! Our quick photo of Miles won Waterway Guide's "photo of the month" award in July of 2020. We found out that the same picture won "photo of the year!" Cindy actual took the photo, not me. However, it was my idea. I guess we can share the credit. God gets the glory, though.
OK, I know that most sailing blogs and video channels have used a variation of this title, but I wanted to jump on the bandwagon because of the essential truth of the statement. It could be worse. We could be working on our boat away from the ocean we have come to love.
